    Sen Mark Warner might as well be a Republican

    I would say that any one suggesting the Democrats stick with a candidate polling in the low thirties might as well be a Republican.

    Republicans need the Democrats to stick with Biden. They literally are fucked if the Democrats pick almost any other candidate. 70% of Americans think Biden is mentally unfit to be President.

    70%.

    Thats an insane number. Biden is over. He can’t win with numbers like that.

    There aren’t going to be any legal battles and its going to be the best earned media the Democrats will ever get in the history of the party if they go to a contested convention. The presidential election is nothing at all like a smaller regional race. Whoever ends up being the candidate will get literally billions of dollars in earned media by simply “becoming” the candidate. The whole drama of it suddenly engages what is currently a completely disengaged voting populace.

    So no.
